A look inside the process.

These drawings, shared by Chad Mount, offer a glimpse into Frequency and Perspective—where geometry becomes a way of seeing.

Rooted in meditation and observation, these studies explore repeating forms and shifting perception. What emerges is not imagined, but noticed.

Frequency and Perspective opens June 25 in the Mary LeFlore Clements Oklahoma Gallery.
